Description In this book the motet lyrics of Philipthe Chancellor (ca. 1165-1236) are subjected to critical editing, translation and comment. While the lyrics treated in the first part can certainly or in all probability be credited to Philip, the second part is devoted to poems in which the assignation is disputed. The commentary is followed by an interpretation that analyses the interplay of music and lyrics combined with arguments regarding the authenticity of the respective lyrics. In doing so, both the religious Latin lyrics with which we are no longer familiar, as well as the motet as a musical-lyrical work of art become tangible.

Publisher Description

Philipp der Kanzler (geb. nach 1165, gest. 1236), Theologe, Prediger, Dichter und Politiker, war eine bedeutende Persönlichkeit der Notre-Dame-Epoche. Mehr als 60 Gedichte sind in mittelalterlichen Handschriften unter seinem Namen tradiert. Erstaunlicherweise sind sie bisher nur verstreut in den Analecta Hymnica, den Carmina Burana und, da sie fast alle mit Musik überliefert sind, in musikwissenschaftlichen Ausgaben greifbar. In der vorliegenden Arbeit werden die 13 Motettentexte Philipps kritisch ediert, übersetzt und kommentiert. Jedem Gedicht sind eine auch die Musik einbeziehende Interpretation und Argumente zur Echtheit des jeweiligen Textes beigefügt. Im zweiten Teil werden darüber hinaus die erst von der modernen Forschung Philipp zugewiesenen Gedichte behandelt. Im Anhang sind die Betonungslizenzen in Philipps Motettentexten zusammengestellt, die es ermöglichen, allgemeine Betonungsregeln in Motettentexten zu formulieren. Die dem heutigen Leser fremd gewordene Gedankenwelt, in der die Gedichte des Kanzlers verankert sind, wird in Kommentar und Interpretation erhellt. Durch die Betrachtung der Motette als musikalisch-textliche Einheit wird der außerordentliche Kunstcharakter der Motette deutlich.
